I can imagine people having a picnic at the top of the hill and then one guy accidentally drops a cheese wheel and it rolls down the hill and the guy is like "yo i just had a crazy idea"
Chris "King of the Hill" Anderson has now won 23 years in row!! Can't believe he's not dead. Glad to hear today he's finally retiring with his head intact. He's an British army vet and was on our local CBC news in Canada today. Congrats bud!
Love to all your families, from your families across the Pond..... I hope the Canadian people are rid of Trudeau soon you have all been dragged through the mud enough. 🇨🇦🇬🇧
Actually, they run several races at each event, and he used to enter each one. So he had years where he won more than one cheese roll. The number was a reference to the number of times he'd won, not the years he'd been doing it.
All my life I have searched for meaning and purpose and I think I may have found it. A pure competition that combines my love of drunken face plants and cheese.
That's awesome. I saw it on the news here in Australia back in the late 80s and was instantly attracted to it. Long live the Gloucestershire cheese roll 👍👍
I'm surprised someone in Oz hasn't started a local version. Australians and New Zealanders are amongst the few people mad enough to enjoy this other than the English.
In all probability the greatest amateur sport event on the planet! Hats off - these ladies and gents are true champions - the love they have for the sport is inspiring. So is their sense of humour ;-)
@fufferfish Exactly! I am getting so tired of everyone praising the NHS and blaming one political party or the other.... They are all in it together, puppets for globalist billionaires, stealing our money for fake wars and fake climate change while filling our towns with more people and less service, its awful.
This is one super crazy event! Looks extremely fun! 😄 until you break or dislocate a bone or two 😅😰 Still, would really want to give it a shot one day 😁😰 Thanks for sharing National Geographic.
I've watched a few of these cheese roll videos and it appears that it's more fun when the grass is at least moist if not very wet. It makes for more slipping, sliding and general madness than when it's dry.
This makes more sense than racing cars, football, soccer, hockey and all our other mindless pursuits. Its free, apparently they are having fun and it is one weekend. Let them have fun and heal.
The National Health Service is always - always - voted _"Most Loved Aspect of Living in Britain"_ by Brits. Even Thatcher lost the war against the NHS.
Holding the maker of the cheese liable for injuries related to the stupidity of chasing it down a hill sounds as if it could have come from the U.S., with the frequency of frivolous lawsuits in America!
This is the type of videos I like to watch. Also, I imagine how it was to be in the first cheese-chasing competition, imagine people with top hats and dresses doing this.
The upper classes didn't do this. It was a local male workers sport - long smocks, longjohns, boots, and hats were typically wide brimmed to keep the sun off if working outside.
It started with labourers celebrating the end of winter and new crops coming etc, they reckon about 600 years ago! Imagine..... no hospitals to fix broken bones back then, they were brave... and stupid lol
1:58 With all due respect, police are not lawyers, you could easily protect yourself from liability in this situation. I mean a lot of people get hurt playing football, but that's not Adidas' fault.
So this is what happens when you turn ragdoll physics on in the settings menu. Also, shout-out to the guy in the Steelers t-shirt! Steeler Nation is everywhere!
In this unique tradition, people race each other down a hill to catch a wheel of cheese. What are your thoughts on this amusing yet dangerous event?
Okay, I just read the title and I was like "What? Downhill what?" I can't believe this exists
Great English tradition, hope no one Allahu Akbars it.

That would probably be the last thing they see.

😭🤣
tiger its salem
This is how we should greet them as a civilization
Possibly the most entertaining competition ever created by mankind. I fully support this.
This is the only entertaining thing Gloucestershire has to offer 😂

I'm just trying to imagine someone bringing a 10-pound cheese wheel to a picnic!
When you get a free health service lol
Love how passionate people are with this interesting yet dangerous sport.
Underated comment.
Take out dangerous and its just sports…
It's not free mate. We pay tax on everything.
Fr i was think about doing this w my friends but then I realized I live in the US
This exciting sport is brought to you by:
Universal Healthcare
Thanks for the funny comment 😂
😂😂😂😂
Oo
Oeo
cries in american
The bravery to risk life and limb to proclaim you caught a piece of cheese. We are England, come at us!
whubaddum Lmao.
you should name yourself
dumbland 😂
Or just toss a cheese and a bunch of Englishmen will roll by
And i thought we were crazy
I can't tell if this is sarcastic y'all brits are weird
I love cheese but,
I love my bones too !
mauriboy make it or break it!
nah cheese good for your bones
And my neck
I am inevitable.
What’s a few broken bones when cheese is on the line.

The drunk people always do better because they flop about instead of breaking bones trying to break their falls lol
This is how bored people get in Gloucestershite
kfunkdeluxe Lmao.
i live in gloucester and it is the only thing that bring the city together
My Grandmother is in Cheltenham, it was kind of boring
@@neilcrossley9281 yes. that and heroin.
moral: Never ask "why?". Ask "why not?"
well I mean this is just kinda asking for injury
I've done this in skyrim at least a dozen times
Hahahaha
Blessed are the cheesemakers.
They can be prosecuted though.
What's so special about the cheesemakers?

*Looks so fun! Can’t believe it’s been going on near to 200 years?!*
Why not if it looks like fun?
Actually it’s an ancient tradition it’s just 1826 was the first written record
To be honest is does look pretty fun-
But it looks SUPER painful
Its actually been going about 600 years but was only written about a few hundred ago!
In all probability the greatest amateur sport event on the planet! Hats off - these ladies and gents are true champions - the love they have for the sport is inspiring. So is their sense of humour ;-)
This takes 'I'm dying for a bit of cheese' to a whole new level.
0:54 coming 1st then K.Os himself😂😂
This makes me proud to be British
I suspect this only works because of free National Healthcare! They certainly should be sponsoring this event!
@@simplywonderful449 It isnt free, we pay high tax for it. Only free at point of service.... but we already paid for it.

@fufferfish Europe is worse my friend. Worse tax, worse services but they are world leaders in human trafficking with their open borders. Good luck.
@fufferfish So leave instead of whining about living on the best island on Earth.
people from wisconsin "can we play this????"
Does Wisconsin have hills? No, they may not play.
@SenorHomeslice we do have hills actually.
I would do anything for cheese but I won’t do that.
0 0 so you wont do anything smh
Now I can't get that song out of my head thanks
This is definitely something on my
“bucket list”,I’d love to watch this in person.
Just watch it in person? I'll definitely ask you to chase the wheel with me! XD
This is one super crazy event! Looks extremely fun! 😄 until you break or dislocate a bone or two 😅😰 Still, would really want to give it a shot one day 😁😰 Thanks for sharing National Geographic.
Azliana Lyana Chill with the emojis.
Removing the emojis has no effect on this comment...
Hate to “break” it to you (pun intended), but you can’t dislocate a bone
@@Orbwn2 What? Of course it is the bone. What are you dislocating? Skin?
@@alan5506 Joints lol
"Are they crazy?"
"No, they are just British."
"O, that makes sense."
I hope non-Brits get to watch another Great British Tradition,
*The Gurning World Championships*
I would have never even guessed something like this existed.... Then again I'm not surprised.
I've watched a few of these cheese roll videos and it appears that it's more fun when the grass is at least moist if not very wet. It makes for more slipping, sliding and general madness than when it's dry.
This should be an Olympic sport
Such a quintessential British drinking activity... 😂😂😂
This makes more sense than racing cars, football, soccer, hockey and all our other mindless pursuits. Its free, apparently they are having fun and it is one weekend. Let them have fun and heal.
Yea rolling down on a hill for cheese makes sense
You gouda be kidding!
Of course it happens in a country with socialized medicine. Bless every one of them.
The National Health Service is always - always - voted
_"Most Loved Aspect of Living in Britain"_

I thought they were racing to obtain the cheese, but it’s 100% better that they’re racing the cheese to the bottom😂
A tradition so dumb you'd think its an american graduate!
but still marvelous.
HighSocks HAHAHAHAHA take my upvote this was the best comment so far 😂😂😂👌🔥
The American version is Barbie jeep racing 😂😂😂
lmao thats funny.
I'd love to watch in person.
It looks funny but that would HURT
So I can’t help but feel bad
Papa bless... Also the Deadpool cosplayer lmfao
Imagine getting tackled by a drunk rugby player 🤣🤣🤣
This is one of the exemptions when cheese is bad for your bones
You laugh you lose: Cheese edition.
When bars reopen after the lockdown 😂😂
How nobody gets killed is a real mystery. The cheese must have some kind of Wolverine healing power !!!
It's Double Gloucester: one bite cures everything. Except insanity, obviously!
The Netflix documentary had me in stitches. Such an English activity. Pure comedy gold!
What's the documentary called?
@@bulbasaurboy9893 Google 'We Are The Champions - Cheese Rolling' and it shows up if you have netflix installed.
There are no words to describe how I feel about this 😂
Same
Buttery by taste.. and that is just the locals 🤣🤣
*Definitely want to join in next year! Looks crazy!!*
Break a leg
please dont do that. Gonna regret every pain killing us

Great fun (to watch!). I went three times, from 2014-2016 (videos on my channel!).
imagine winning but your lactose intolerant
Between this and the shrove football thing one can only say that the British are nuts.
This is one of the greatest events I have ever seen.
Natural selection at its finest!
Survival of the Feta?
lmao that's good
Nobody has ever been killed doing it 🤔 fuckwit!
John Bush no just broken arms or legs, and blunt force trauma to the head. maby a few broken ribs. lmao
Natural selection is also the irish starving to death while being on a island surrounded by fish
Jesus😱, this is a real thing. I thought my English teacher got something wrong in the translation of the book.
Flo Early is one of the brave women ever. Love it in Netflix.
H3H3 anyone?
Papa bless!
You know it!
Literally me any time I see cheese
I’ve never been so proud to be English
Try the beautiful English tradition of "Gurning" next. Now that'll get your loins projecting.
3:00
*cheering*
Wait...Do I still having my 5 fingers? I do yeah
*continue cheering*
I started laughing just seeing the title of the video! 😁
Now I understand Brexit! :D
These people are great 😂😂😂
Unlike the others i’d stand downhill waiting for the cheese to come to me
TRUTH NO LIES it would probably punch a hole right through you travelling at 70mph
"Oi mate, you got a license for that cheese wheel?"
Joined this competition this year, loved every second of it!! Wish it was still a thing for my kids to join
1:58 With all due respect, police are not lawyers, you could easily protect yourself from liability in this situation. I mean a lot of people get hurt playing football, but that's not Adidas' fault.
Seems fun I wanna try this once in my life
Just imagine people doing this in 1826 lmao
That Orchestra is trying SO hard to not go full Indiana Jones...
2:22 this dude also won this year... + he has a moustache now😂
Mom" why couldn't I participated lol"
I love the music you put to this 🤣🤣🤣🤣
This is hysterical and gruesome. Bouncing bodies!
What if one cheeseroll would get some ideas to run away uphill?
Music is so good and the event is also so utopian
OMG, I didn't know that Cheese Roller from Neopets exists in real life! XD
And so the selection for the “Green Bay Packers Mascot" begins!!
Cheese be like : Helf
Aslo fall like that: Not helf
This competition looks like : Normol
Finally some sport that brits invented and are good at it in the same time
invented Rugby. Good at it. Invented football. Good at it. The worlds best? Some years yes, others no. But we're ALWAYS good it them.
Risking your life for a piece of cheese.
*Sign me up!*
Dislocated shoulder? Wheel of Double Gloucester Cheese? Totally worth it! 😂🎉
Now watch this like its a ton of people trying to re-create something they saw from Wallace and Gromit and horribly failing due to real-life physics.
saw this on TikTok now I’m here 😂
Same!! 😂
I love this eaven tho its dangeurous I still like the tradicion
I'm sore watching this. I must win this cheese though.
normal people : driving down 60mph speed limit road
that one person rolling down 70mph down the road :
This is one sport we are world champions at. It makes me so proud to be British.
Crazy but too dangerous!
I can't help but think of Monty Python while watching this, with Michael Palin as commentator.
So this is what happens when you turn ragdoll physics on in the settings menu.
Also, shout-out to the guy in the Steelers t-shirt! Steeler Nation is everywhere!
The essence of life.
2:48 deadpool made my day
Hard to believe these people conquered the world
How amusing of the common people... Thank you.
This is the absolute worst idea, yet this kind of saucery seems entertaining
This is crazy 😂💯
Horace the cheese would beat them all hands down.
MASS DESTRUCTION!!!!!
This was amazing to watch😂
Just about the only thing left that makes me proud to be British.
This is the most dangerous-looking sport I have ever seen. They should put it in the Olympics.
...and what about nettle eating?
